[Focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver in childhood].
FNH of the liver is extremely rare during childhood. Based on relevant literature and two of our own cases the diagnosic problems are presented. Unless a clear diagnosis can be obtained by using US (Ultrasonic), CT, Szintegraphy and Angiography, laparotomy should be carried out to avoid confusion with hepatocellular carcinoma or hepatocellular adenome which can become malignant. With the exception of biopsy the higher degree of diagnostic accuracy is obtained with celiacography. Since FNH does not have a tendency towards malignancy, total extsirpation should not be attempted if vital structures are endangered.
